Core Tip |
Urotensin II (UII) is a potent vasoconstrictor with an immunomodulatory effect that is connected to various cardiovascular disorders. On the other hand, patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have increased cardiovascular burden as well as increased expression of UII receptors. It is plausible that UII is involved in the complex pathophysiology of IBD complications. In the current study, we investigated UII levels in the IBD population and compared it to matched control subjects, as well as connection of UII with relevant clinical and biochemical parameters. The results of this study showed that serum UII levels are higher in IBD patients in comparison with the control group. |
